I can be brutally honest which often gets me in to hot water, but I am never disrespectful.
I may be opinionated, but I am more than willing to listen to the opinions of others.

"No." I whisper the reply. I hate him and I hate myself for wanting him to touch me again....

"I dare you..."

If
anyone knew the truth about Beth Risk's home life, they'd send her
mother to jail and seventeen-year-old Beth who knows where. So she
protects her mom at all costs. Until the day her uncle swoops in and
forces Beth to choose between her mom's freedom and her own happiness.
That's how Beth finds herself living with an aunt who doesn't want her
and going to a school that doesn't understand her. At all. Except for
the one guy who shouldn't get her, but does....

Ryan Stone is the
town golden boy, a popular baseball star jock-with secrets he can't
tell anyone. Not even the friends he shares everything with, including
the constant dares to do crazy things. The craziest? Asking out the
Skater girl who couldn't be less interested in him.

But what
begins as a dare becomes an intense attraction neither Ryan nor Beth
expected. Suddenly, the boy with the flawless image risks his dreams-and
his life-for the girl he loves, and the girl who won't let anyone get
too close is daring herself to want it all...

My ThoughtsKatie
McGarry really knows how to get that teenage voice spot on. Both Ryan and Beth
are really great characters, each with a healthy dose of angst and parental
disillusion; both a little battered and bruised and carrying around their fair
share of secrets.

The love between Ryan and Beth is so tender and sweet it’s impossible not to
get all gooey over it. But they have their fair share of ups and downs too, and
battle their way through some tough situations; but when it’s all said and
done, they need each other.

Dare You To is full of great writing that engages your heart and a story that
completely enraptures you, making it hard to put down; hard to stop reading.

Did I feel a little sorry for Isaiah, absolutely; but his story is yet to come
and I know the wait will be worth it, I just hope the girl is to!

This author has once again broken my heart with her emotional portrayal of
first love and yes, I cried a tear or two! Heartfelt teenage love at its best
